Crying is the most common way for babies, as crying can cause them to swell up. Many babies not only cry during the day, but also easily cry at night, which makes mothers very anxious and nervous. The night is supposed to be a time for rest, but if the baby cries, the mother cannot rest. So, how to solve the problem of babies crying at night?
1. Try breastfeeding. If the baby cries at night, it is best for parents to try feeding the baby. Because the baby may cry due to hunger. 90% of breast milk is water, so babies are easily hungry and will need to breastfeed again after three to four hours. When a baby wakes up crying at night, parents can breastfeed them. Once the baby is full, they will naturally fall asleep quickly.
2. Let the baby suck. When a baby cries at night, sometimes it's not because they're hungry, but because they need comfort. At this time, you can give the baby a pacifier to suck on, or give the baby's mother's nipple, etc. The baby will feel very safe when sucking, so they can quickly calm down.
3. Hold it in your arms and comfort it. Baby crying may be due to having a bad dream, and at this time, the baby lacks a sense of security. It is best for parents to hold the baby in their arms, gently shake it, or speak slowly and softly to the baby, so that the baby can calm down and fall asleep again.
4. Actively supplement calcium. If a baby is calcium deficient, they are also prone to crying at night. Therefore, if the above methods have been tried but still do not work, it is best to take the baby to the hospital for examination.
